hello,
the staff at reception and in the restaurant are really lovely and helpful, the only problem is that the freedom to visit the surrounding area is limited.

Had a wonderful one night stay, staff were very friendly. There was just a problem with the generator earlier in the evening, but these days it’s hard to fault businesses for that!

Tv channels & Dstv channels must be increased to a variety.
Check in staff where friendly but exceptionally slow. Aircon in the room blows cool air and it worked out better to open the window. The room has a patio but its locked with no key available to open it. The bar / restaurant had a closed sign in front of it at 1330 in the afternoon when lunch was advertised as available. No Bar staff on duty and eventually one of the house keeping ladies offered to help after 15 mins of standing around. Tables were covered in ants on the Saturday morning breakfast service. Definitely wont be staying there again.
